[QUOTE="Boogaloo, post: 817741, member: 69093"] Thank you Scot, I guess I am not really all that concerned about grouping on 100 yard paper when these bullets obviously perform well at greater distances. I do however use 100 yard paper to validate zero before I start reaching out with any platform at my local range. I like your idea of trying to see what they do @ 200 however, and I had not even thought about the fact that they may not stabilize (well) until beyond 100 yards? I will admit that I was ultra impressed with the group @ 600 yards using the 82 BT Target bullets. The 82's were basically an impulse buy that I made when I could not find any of the 80 VLD's at that particular point in time. The G1 BC numbers for the 82's being .432 vs .444 for the 80 VLD's was impressive enough for me to buy 10 boxes of them since they looked pretty good on paper when working up data in Quickload and QuickTarget. I guess I will go back out with these same loads @ .035 off the lands as well as a batch using the jump ladder and see where they end up. [/QUOTE]
